Comment 16 Jason Tibbitts 2016-11-01 19:14:39 UTC 
Not sure how better to talk about this, but something is definitely not right with the updated packages and I would request that you reconsider trying to push them as an update in their current state.

Somehow updating a basic client which has only amanda, amanda-client and amanda-libs brings in amanda-server.  In turn, that appears to bring in a web server, mod perl, and a large number of Perl modules.  For the backup server, that might be considered OK (though I'd suggest doing that only in rawhide) but I don't think this is at all reasonable for a simple client install.
Comment 17 Jason Tibbitts 2016-11-02 01:40:14 UTC 
So the issue is the following dependencies that the base amanda package has grown, which are only satisfied by amanda-server:

perl(Amanda::Changer)
perl(Amanda::Cmdfile)
perl(Amanda::Cmdline)
perl(Amanda::Device)
perl(Amanda::Disklist)
perl(Amanda::Extract)
perl(Amanda::Holding)
perl(Amanda::Logfile)
perl(Amanda::Recovery::Clerk)
perl(Amanda::Recovery::Clerk::Feedback)
perl(Amanda::Recovery::Planner)
perl(Amanda::Recovery::Scan)
perl(Amanda::Storage)

I'm not exactly sure why the client would need some of those, but I'd suggest moving them into the base amanda package or the libs package.

And I'll add these while I'm typing, though I should find the time to open separate tickets:

Just putting the perl .so files in -libs while the actual libraries are in the base amanda package is very strange.  Probably putting it all in a perl-Amanda package would make more sense.

The odd patch to add the empty package statements to work around the dependency breakage is probably handled more simply by a simple dependency filter in the spec.

I always have to rebuild locally to add a build dependency on xfsdump.  xfsdump is the default filesystem for Fedora Server; it doesn't make a lot of sense for amanda to lack support for it.

If I can find some time I'll work up and send some patches.

Patch I'm using

I had typed up a big comment up but somehow never actually hit the Submit button.  In the interim I've been running packages built with the attached patch to the spec and everything's working fine without pointless dependencies.

What I ended up doing is moving _all_ of the Perl stuff to the base amanda package by adding these two lines to the %files section:

%{perl_vendorarch}/Amanda¬
%{perl_vendorarch}/auto/Amanda¬

And then removing all other lines matching perl_vendorarch.  This gives me a set of packages that has only one additional dependency (perl-JSON).

Really, the amanda-libs package should probably just go away entirely and its contents moved into the base amanda package.
